Want to keep your body fit? Pick up weights, get on a treadmill or take a walk. But what about your mind?

Brain fitness, the ability to meet life’s cognitive demands, was believed to decline during the natural course of aging. Research shows it is possible to create new neurons and to strengthen the connections between brain cells. Lifelong brain health and development are affected by how we use our brains, and like physical fitness, brain function can be boosted by taking on a variety of mental challenges.
